The structure of sealing band 90 is described below with reference to Fig. 7.The state before being attached of sealing band 90 is represented in the figure 7 with continuous long and two-short dash line.Sealing band 90 has the shape substantially the same with the shape of the sealing band 90 shown in Fig. 2.

As shown in Figure 7, the sealing band 90 be made up of elastomeric material comprises the base portion 91 of the flange part 1b surrounding top board 1.Base portion 91 is supported from the bottom of base portion 91 by means of maintaining part 25.

More specifically, base portion 91 is formed as having U-shaped cross-section and has base body 92 and core 93, the inner end (that is, the end, upper left of the base portion 91 in Fig. 7) of base body 92 is connected with sealing 97, and core 93 to embed in base body 92 and has U-shaped cross-section.Interior vertical wall portion 25c is positioned at inside flange part 1b.On the other hand, outer vertical wall portion 25b is positioned at outside flange part 1b.In addition, base portion 91 is formed from the inner peripheral surface of base body 92 diagonally multiple protrusions (in first in protrusion 94a, second protrusion 94b and outer protrusion 95) of extending of direction.In addition, upper protrusion 96 is formed in the outer end place (that is, the upper right end of base body 92 in the figure 7) of base body 92.

Sealing 97 is formed as having the cross-sectional plane of C shape substantially and comprises sealing main body 98 and protrusion 99, and two ends of sealing main body 98 are connected to base body 92, and protrusion 99 is connected to sealing main body 98.Inner space is limited by the inner peripheral surface of sealing main body 98 and the outer surface of base body 92.

Sealing 97 is formed as the outer surface contacting sealing main body 98 when portable plate 12 is in buttoned-up status, particularly, and edge, the right 12b of the side surface contact portable plate 12 of sealing 97.In addition, when sealing 97 is out of shape owing to being promoted by portable plate 12, the upper surface of the lower surface contact inwardly-extending portion 25d of sealing main body 98.

Below with reference to the operation that is inclined upwardly of Fig. 8 describing activity plate 12.Figure 8 illustrates the main vertical cross-section figure relevant with portable plate 12 of the skylight device 10 under the state being in and completing the operation that is inclined upwardly.As the situation of Fig. 2, represent different parts with dissimilar line in fig. 8.

As shown in Figure 8, when driving slide block 40 to move backward when skylight device 10 is in buttoned-up status, front double pointed nail 54 is relatively shifted along forward direction in response to driving the motion of slide block 40 in the rearward recess 44a of the first concave part 44.But in this stage, even if when driving slide block 40 to move backward, in fact front coupling member 50 is not shifted along backward directions.

On the other hand, in this case, rear double pointed nail 64 in rear longitudinal fluting 46a, the inclination rearward recess 46b and middle longitudinal fluting 46c of the second concave part 46 by said sequence relatively and onwards move.Second concave part 46 is formed as extending towards the oblique Shangdi of its leading section.Therefore, rear double pointed nail 64 is in response to driving the displacement along backward directions of slide block 40 and upward displacement.In addition, rear coupling member 60 rotates around rear support pin 66 along the anticlockwise direction in Fig. 8 and is not shifted along backward directions.In other words, rear coupling member 60 makes the rearward end of functional support 70 upwards rise as follows: rear support pin 66 is guided by the supporting wall portion 26 of guide rail 20, then double pointed nail 64 guided by the second concave part 46 and be shifted.

Therefore, functional support 70 rotates around front rotation section 72 to make the rearward end of functional support 70 rise and not be shifted along backward directions in the counterclockwise direction.In other words, functional support 70 performs the operation that is inclined upwardly in the above described manner.

Until to completing the operation that is inclined upwardly from buttoned-up status, the upper area supported 30a and lower support surface 30b in forward recess portion 32 is closely positioned at above and below front support pin 56 respectively.Therefore, front support pin 56 upwards and is down supported by front guiding elements 30 in a vertical direction.

Portable plate 12 operates in response to being inclined upwardly and rotates around front connecting pin 52.Therefore, in portable plate 12 rotation process, the front edge portion 12a crush seal bar 90 forward and downward of portable plate 12, sealing band 90 is arranged on front edge portion 12a front along the longitudinal direction.Usually, when with put on sealing band 90 energetically repeatedly promote sealing band 90, sealing band 90 damages.In order to avoid the damage of sealing band 90, the flange part 1b of top board 1 may be needed to shift forward.

But, according to this embodiment, skylight device 10 is configured so that front connecting pin 52 along the longitudinal direction between front edge portion 12a and front support pin 56 and in the process that operates of being inclined upwardly along the vertical direction between front edge portion 12a and front support pin 56, thus the damage of sealing band 90 is reduced.

Ejection (pop-up) below with reference to Fig. 9 describing activity plate 12 operates.In addition, below with reference to the slide of Figure 10 describing activity plate 12.Described ejection operation performed before the slide of portable plate 12.In addition, in ejection operation, when portable plate 12 moves backward from the state that it completes the operation that is inclined upwardly, the front edge portion 12a of portable plate 12 holds up further.

Figure 9 illustrates seen by the Width along vehicle, skylight device 10 main section drawing relevant with portable plate 12 in ejection operation process.Figure 10 illustrates seen by the Width along vehicle, main with the portable plate 12 relevant section drawing of skylight device 10 under the state completing slide.As the situation of Fig. 2, line dissimilar is in figure 9 and in figure 10 used for the different parts of skylight device 10.

As shown in Figure 9, when drive slide block 40 from complete be inclined upwardly operation state to backward shift, front double pointed nail 54 in response to drive slide block 40 displacement backward and be relatively displaced to forward recess 44b from the rearward recess 44a of the first concave part 44 and be finally displaced to the leading section of forward recess 44b.In this case, limiting pin 58 diagonally backward along the guiding surface 80b of confinement block 80 on direction displacement.In addition, in this case, front support pin 56 in forward recess portion 32 to backward shift with upward displacement to the rearward end in forward recess portion 32.Therefore, front coupling member 50 is rotating around front support pin 56 in the counterclockwise direction while backward shift.In other words, front coupling member 50 makes the leading section of functional support 70 rise as follows: front double pointed nail 54 is guided by the first concave part 44 of driving slide block 40 and front support pin 56 is guided front coupling member 50 is shifted by front guiding elements 30.

On the other hand, in this case, rear double pointed nail 64 in inclination forward recess 46d and front longitudinal fluting 46e by said sequence relatively and onwards move, with the leading section making rear double pointed nail 64 finally be moved upward to front longitudinal fluting 46e.As mentioned above, the direction that the second concave part 46 is formed as diagonally going up towards its front portion extends.Therefore, when driving slide block 40 to backward shift, rear double pointed nail 64 is upward displacement in response to the displacement backward of driving slide block 40.Therefore, rear coupling member 60 is rotating around rear support pin 66 in the counterclockwise direction while backward shift.

Therefore, functional support 70 rotates around front rotation section 72 to make end thereafter increase to during backward shift at functional support 70 in the counterclockwise direction.According to embodiment, because front double pointed nail 54 engages with forward recess 44b in the front end of forward recess 44b, so when drive slide block 40 from the state shown in Fig. 9 further to backward shift, front coupling member 50 also in response to drive slide block 40 displacement backward and to backward shift.In addition, in this case, front support pin 56 presses said sequence to backward shift in the inclined groove portion 34 and rearward recess portion 36 of front guiding elements 30, to make front support pin 56 upward displacement to the rearward end in rearward recess portion 36.Therefore, when current coupling member 50 is to backward shift, front coupling member 50 rotates along the clockwise direction in Fig. 9 around front double pointed nail 54.

On the other hand, in this case, rear coupling member 60 in response to drive slide block 40 displacement backward and to backward shift.Therefore, functional support 70 rotates around rear rotation section 74 to make the leading section of functional support 70 increase while backward shift along clockwise direction.Thus, portable plate 12 transfer to be in portable plate 12 along the longitudinal direction along top board 1 extend state, therefore, complete ejection operation.

As shown in Figure 10, when drive slide block 40 from the state completing ejection operation further to backward shift, portable plate 12 in response to drive slide block 40 displacement backward and slide backward.
